The Importance of Relationship Marketing
Why focus on relationship marketing?
Customer relationships are the lifeblood of every good company.
Relationships between a company and their customers, distributors,
employees, referral sources, are vital to continued, sustained growth,
and stability. Loyal relationships with these valued individuals
make for a strong bottom line. So, why do so few companies focus
on customer relationship marketing? That's a great question, and
probably the most frequent answer is lack of understanding of the
potential profits in keeping existing customers happy versus constantly
acquiring new ones.
When you consider
that two-thirds of customers switch from one company to another
because of a perceived attitude of indifference from the former
company, it makes sense to focus as much attention on customer retention
as you do on customer acquisition. Don't be a victim of indifference.
Develop a good relationship marketing program that takes into consideration
both customer relationship marketing, and customer acquisition through
relationship marketing. With well-planned relationship marketing
efforts, like a greeting card campaign using our system, you can
impact retention -- and that will impact the bottom line.
According to
customer relationship management experts, companies can increase
revenue by 50% if they retain only 5% more of their customers. Don't
you want your share of that revenue? Our system is the way to put
the process of keeping those dollars on autopilot.
Solidify
loyal relationships with your most valuable customers.
Business owners
tend to be driven, both financially and philosophically, to make
cold calls, pursue new contacts, and acquire new customers. But
often, little thought is given to nurturing relationships with the
customers they already have. Given that acquiring a new customer
can cost five times more than retaining an existing one, this can
be a costly approach.
Customers who
are continuously courted, interacted with, and reminded of your
company's presence are less likely to go racing off when competitors
come calling. Making those customers feel recognized, known and
appreciated can go a long way toward locking up their loyalty. And,
it's also a great way to get them referring others.
Restore broken
relationships and win back business.
Regardless of
how effective your customer retention efforts are, some relationships
will inevitably break down. For various reasons, certain customers
will suspend their relationship with you and your business. But
those relationships aren't lost. You can win back these once-valuable
customers.
Often times,
repairing a broken relationship is more efficient than trying to
build one from scratch. But many companies make the mistake of attempting
to re-acquire lost customers in the same way that they acquire new
ones. But failing to use what you know about those past customers
-- and what they know about you -- to your advantage can cost you
time and money. Our automated greeting card system lets you minimize
the potential for losing a client or customer, and also streamlines
the process of acquiring new ones, all at a cost that cannot be
matched in any other customer acquisiton or retention system. So,
if you have not formulated a marketing plan that includes a focus
on relationship marketing with an automated tool like ours, you
owe it to yourself and to your business to try it out today.
